Um, Columbia Road.

Bush. Oval.

Is this a DC attack "go" signal for a cell the US or a warning?

As another poster stated...warren could be like "warning."

With the addition of Columbia Road being nearby, it is intriguing.

Having spent 6+ years in the USAF as a weapons specialist (IYAAYAS), I know a bit about explosives and weapons. If I witnessed a bombing I would help the injured. If I witnessed strange sounding low-order explosion, more like a thump than a bang, I would run upwind as fast as I could for as long as I could. Low-order explosions are THE way to spread bio/chem weapons. I don't think that is the case in London, it sounds more like bad bomb making to me.

Yeh, that was my first thought when I heard smoke....but just a test run like you're thinking since no one was keeling over. The bad guys probably know little...just new volunteers.

Don't know any more about that, we'll have to wait for another report.

Yesterday on my bus there was a young Middle Eastern man who I'd never seen before. He was reading something in Arabic - not a book, just printed sheets of paper. Suddenly the idea of wearing a helemet didn't seem so ridiculous. :-) But I'll say this - if I see some young Middle Eastern man get on my bus with a backpack, or heavily dressed on a hot day, reeking of cologne, I'm getting off.

This attack, whatever its intent, might well backfire on the muslims. It's going to make the British more angry than afraid.

Whereas the British were welcome and tolerant of muslims in the country, the muslims probably have worn out their welcome. It's going to be much more difficult for them in the future.

Has anyone blamed Bush yet for causing this news to take attention away from Rovegate?

I think SD was quoting someone else--I don't think those were SD's thoughts.

So far:

Shephard's Bush - reference to the president

Oval - Reference to the Oval Office

Columbia Road - reference to District of Columbia (DC)

Warren Street - no idea as of this time. I think this is the clue that will lead us to those scumbags.

A rabbit warren perhaps? Is that perhaps a reference to the sprawling sewer system under london? Could it be that there is a terrorist cell hiding in the sewers of london? Bomb-making factories? I hope the police are onto this.

Aye, that I can't dispute. We had a little taste of it across the pond of course, but then the War ended, and everyone stopped caring about their rights as long as they could still catch the match at the pub. Feh..

Warren Christopher - former Clinton Secretary of State?

Looks like the second round in the terror campaign to get the Brits to pull out of Iraq and Afghanistan. And to get other European countries to do the same.
